Behringer DEEPMIND 12 Manual - Page 8

8 DeepMind 12 User Manual (1) DISPLAY - this large backlit LCD screen shows the synthesizer status, parameters, and the five main menus. The contrast and brightness are adjustable on the PANEL SETTINGS page of the GLOBAL menu. (2) NAVIGATION - navigate within the display menus using the BANK/UP, BANK/DOWN, +/YES, and -/NO switches. (3) MENUS - these switches allow access to the display menus. (7) OSC 1 & 2 - These analog full range oscillators create waveforms which are the sound source of the synthesizer. OSC 1 & 2 PITCH MOD - amount of pitch modulation applied to respective OSC. OSC 1 SQUAREWAVE- this switch turns the square wave output for OSC 1 on/off. PROG MENU- the main display of the synthesizer. Shows the current program, the currently adjusted parameter and a visual representation of the parameter and the three envelopes. FX MENU - add up to four effects from the list available. Change the effects routing by selecting one of the ten MODEs available. Each of the effects has individual controls for all parameters. OSC 1 PWM - amount of pulse width modulation applied to the OSC 1 square wave. OSC 1 SAWTOOTH- this switch turns the sawtooth output for OSC 1 on/off. OSC 2 TONE MOD- amount of tone modulation applied to OSC 2. OSC 2 PITCH- controls the base pitch of OSC 2. GLOBAL MENU - view and adjust settings for the synthesizer. There are OSC 2 LEVEL- controls the level of OSC 2. five pages, CONNECTIVITY, KEYBOARD, PEDAL, PANEL and SYSTEM. NOISE LEVEL- controls the amount of white noise added to the oscillators. COMPARE MENU - in this menu, you can compare the current program with the stored program and see the difference in physical fader positions. EDIT- this allows additional OSC parameters to be edited from the main display. WRITE MENU - in this menu, you can write the current program settings to the program library. You can also rename the program and set its (8) POLY - this area is used to control the polyphony of the synthesizer. category type. UNISON DETUNE - when voices are playing in unison, this adjusts the (4) DATA ENTRY - selected parameters on the display are adjusted using the amount of detuning between the voices. rotary knob or the DATA ENTRY fader. The rotary knob has a click which EDIT- this allows additional POLY parameters to be edited from allows very accurate control. The fader allows rapid adjustment across the the main display. full range. (9) VCF - the voltage controlled low pass filter used to filter high frequencies MOD- this switch opens the modulation matrix on the display and allows from the sound of the synthesizer. up to 8 modulations to be created from the list of sources and destinations. FREQ - adjusts the cut-off frequency of the filter. (5) ARP/SEQ - this area controls the arpeggiator and the control sequencer. 2-POLE - changes the roll off slope of the filter from the default 4-POLE ON/OFF - when activated, this generates an arpeggio based on pressed mode to a 2-POLE mode. keys. Note - the control sequencer is turned on from its edit page only. RES - adjusts the resonance of the filter cut-off point. RATE - adjusts the rate of the arpeggiator / sequencer in beats per minute (BPM). EDIT - allows additional VCF parameters to be edited from the main display. GATE TIME - adjusts the duration of the note played based on a percentage of the time between triggered notes. ENV - adjusts the level of the VCF ENVELOPE which controls the filter cut-off frequency. CHORD - allows you to play any chord with a single key. The chord is given a root note and mapped across the keyboard. INVERT - used to invert the polarity of the VCF envelope applied to the filter cut-off frequency. POLY CHORD - allows you to play multiple chords from multiple keys. The chords are mapped to individual keys. LFO - adjusts the depth of the selected LFO waveform applied to the filter cut-off frequency. TAP/HOLD - tap this button in time with your performance to set the rate/ BPM, or press and hold to engage the HOLD function. KYBD - adjusts the amount of keyboard tracking to be applied to the filter cut-off frequency. EDIT - this allows additional arpeggiator/control sequencer parameters to be edited from the main display. (10) VCA - the voltage controlled amplifier used to control the output level. (6) LFO 1 and 2- low frequency oscillators used to modulate or control other LEVEL - controls the output level of the VCA. parameters. EDIT - this allows additional VCA parameters to be edited from RATE- this sets the rate, or speed of the LFO. the main display. DELAY TIME - the duration of time which will elapse before the LFO starts. (11) HPF - the voltage controlled high pass filter used to filter low frequencies from the sound of the synthesizer. EDIT - this allows additional LFO parameters to be edited from the main display. FREQ - used to adjust the frequency of the high pass filter. LFO WAVEFORMs - these LEDs indicate the type and status of the BOOST - this switch applies a +12 dB bass boost to the signal path. waveforms produced by each LFO.
